A.2.a  GEOGRAPHIC BOUNDARIES

A.2.b  STATIONS OCCUPIED

The WOCE crusie , P14n, from the Bering Sea to Fiji included top to 
bottom hydrography, subsurface float deployments, Acoustic Doppler 
Current Profiling (ADCP), tracer measurements and meteorological 
observations.  

P14N starts in the Bering Sea at the shelf break and transects the 
deep Aleutian Basin, Amchitka Pass, and the Aleutian Trench.  From 50 
n to 16 S the line follows 179 E, which passes through the wide 
Northeast pacific and Central Pacific Basins.  It also crosses the 
Hess Rise, the Hawaiian Ridge, the Mid-Pacific Seamounts and the 
Kirbati-Tuvalu ridge.  Station spacing was 30 nm (55 km); the only 
exception ws near the Aleutians and between 9 N and 5 S, where 15 nm 
(27 km) spacing was used to resolve better the jet-like current 
structures.

A.4    SCIENTIFIC PROGRAMME AND METHODS

A.4.a  SCIENTIFIC RATIONALE
       (Gunnar I. Roden, University of Washington)

Researchers aboard the RV Thomas G. Thompson set sail on a WOCE cruise (P14N) in 
July 1993 to study the region around the Date Line. This region provides a 
critical link between the energetic western and more sluggish eastern Pacific 
flow regimes. Three major midlatitude currents decelerate in this region. The 
Alaska Stream separates from the Aleutian Island arc, weakening in the process. 
The Subarctic Current and its associated fronts become broader and weaker, and 
the Kuroshio extension reaches its eastern limit of penetration as a well 
defined current. In the subtropics, there are multiple branches of eastward 
flow. In equatorial latitudes, the structure of the linked system of jetlike 
currents, countercurrents and undercurrents changes significantly near the Date 
Line. In addition to the flow changes, the currents and water property 
structures in the abyssal basins of the Bering Sea and Central Pacific, which 
are crucial to understanding the deep circulation, have not been sampled 
adequately on previous occasions.

A.4.b  SCIENTIFIC MEASUREMENTS

The WOCE cruise (conducted from July 5 - September 1, 1993) from the Bering Sea 
to Fiji included top-to-bottom hydrography, subsurface float deployments, 
Acoustic Doppler Current Profiling (ADCP), tracer measurements and 
meteorological observations. The principal investigators and their 
responsibilities are listed in Table 1.

Figure A.4.1 shows the stations occupied during the cruise. P14N starts in the 
Bering Sea at the shelf break and transects the deep Aleutian Basin, Amchitka 
Pass, and the Aleutian Trench. From 50°N to 16°S the line follows 179°E, which 
passes through the wide Northeast Pacific and Central Pacific Basins. It also 
crosses the Hess Rise, the Hawaiian Ridge, the Mid-Pacific Seamounts and the 
Kiribati-Tuvalu ridge. Station spacing was 30 nm (55 km); the only exception was 
near the Aleutians and between 9°N and 5°S, where 15 rim. (27 km) spacing was 
used to resolve better the jet-like current structures.

A.4.c  BERING SEA AND SUBARCTIC NORTH PACIFIC (59°-42°N)

The baroclinic flow relative to the bottom suggests a cyclonic circulation in 
the Aleutian Basin, westward (10 cm/s) along the northern shelf and eastward (30 
cm/s) along the southern rim. The latter resembles a boundary current with 
speeds of 20 cm/s at 1400 in and a volume transport of 10 Sv. In July 1993 the 
deep westward Alaska Stream was 100 kin wide and had a double core with speeds 
up to 54 cm/s (Figure A.4.2). The volume transport relative to 6000 dbar was 38 
Sv, of which 14 Sv were below 1000 in. South of 50°N, the flow was dominated by 
mesoscale eddies, which were superimposed on weak background eastward flow.

The upper thermohaline structure throughout the subarctic domain has a thin, 
warm, low salinity top layer. It also contains a shallow temperature minimum 
layer, representing mostly remnant winter cooling, and a 100-200 in thick 
inversion layer in the halocline. This basic structure is interrupted in 
Amchitka Pass (where strong tidal mixing eliminates the temperature minimum), 
and it terminates at the subarctic front near 42°N. Between the subarctic fronts 
and the Aleutians, the Alaska Dome dominates all property distributions. The 
Dome is centered near 50°N (Figures A.4.3 and A.4.4), and its top lies near 125 m, which 
is just beneath the winter mixed layer. The density at the top of the Dome is 
26.8 kg/m3. This indicates that North Pacific intermediate water might 
occasionally form there during prolonged polar air outbreaks.

One of the most surprising discoveries in the Bering Sea was made by Mark Warner 
from the University of Washington. At the bottom of the Aleutian Basin of the 
Bering Sea, Warner discovered elevated chlorofluorocarbon levels that indicate, 
in corroboration with other supporting evidence, recent ventilation of the 
abyssal waters. The results from the Bering Sea investigation have been 
published by Warner and Roden (1995) and Roden (1995).

A.4.d  SUBARCTIC-SUBTROPICAL TRANSITION ZONE (42°-31°N)

The subarctic-subtropical transition zone occupies the region between the 
subarctic and subtropical gyres. The northern and southern boundaries of this 
zone are formed by the subarctic and subtropical fronts, which contain enhanced 
eastward jets. Near the Date Line, the circulation and property structures are 
affected also by the Kuroshio extension, which at times crosses the Line as a 
well defined current and at other times appears to disperse farther west.

The observed property structures in the summer of 1993 reflected this basic 
zonation. The subarctic front (42°N) was marked by the surfacing of the 
subarctic halocline, the disappearance of the subsurface temperature minimum, 
the deepening of the thermocline, and the weakening of the nutricline. The 
baroclinic jet along the front was about 150 kin wide, reached speeds of 30 cm/ 
s near the surface, and had an eastward transport of 32 Sv relative to the 
bottom. The Kuroshio extension was crossed near 35°30°N and had well defined 
property fronts on its sides. It had a width of 125 kin, a core speed of 44 
cm/s, and a volume transport of 34 Sv (about 20 percent of which occurred below 
1000 m). The subtropical front was between 3l°-32°N. The associated baroclinic 
jet was about 100 kin wide, had a maximum speed of 39 cm/s, and had a volume 
transport of 39 Sv toward the east.

The abyssal property distributions between the Aleutians and the Hess Rise 
indicate uniform conditions with weak vertical gradients. The most notable 
feature was the abyssal temperature minimum near 4000 in, the axis and 
temperature of which are about 500 in deeper and O.1°C cooler than in the Bering 
Sea.

A.4.e  NORTH PACIFIC TRADEWIND REGION (31°-9°N)

The North Pacific tradewind region encompasses the southern branch of the 
subtropical gyre, roughly between the subtropical and doldrums fronts. It is 
dominated by easterly tradewinds, strong insolation, excess evaporation over 
precipitation, and background downward motion induced by the negative curl of 
the wind stress. The nutricline is deep (150 in), and the surface nutrient 
concentrations are low.

Despite these general characteristics, the thermohaline and current structures 
in the tradewind region are complex. This is due to the spatial inhomogeneity of 
atmospheric forcing, baroclinic instabilities of flow, and eddies migrating into 
the region.

The geopotential height distributions in the summer of 1993 (Figure A.4.5) revealed 
several prominent ridges and troughs in the tradewind region, with a clear 
indication of the poleward shift of the center of the "corrugated" subtropical 
gyre. At the surface, the maximum occurred at 16°N; however, the highest peak at 
400 dbar was located near 36°N.

Banded baroclinic flow structures were associated with the ridge and trough 
structure of geopotential height. The westward flow from 12°-15°N represents the 
core of the north equatorial current. This current reached speeds of 44 cm/s 
near the surface and had a transport of 76 Sv relative to the bottom (about 20 
percent of which is below 1000 dbar). The eastward flows were concentrated 
mainly in the 17°-21°N and 24°-28°N latitude bands with speeds up to 25 cm/s. It 
is not yet clear if these eastward flows were associated with a meandering 
subtropical countercurrent, a pair of mesoscale eddies, or a combination of 
both.

A.4.f  EQUATORIAL REGION (90°N-90°S)

The climatology of the equatorial region shows fast zonal, jet-like currents, 
countercurrents and undercurrents, as well as tradewind and water mass 
confluence. Influences from both the western and eastern Pacific are evident 
near the Date Line. In the summer of 1993 western Pacific influences were 
dominant, and both the oceanic and atmospheric conditions were highly unusual 
compared to the climatological norm depicted in most atlases.

The first sign of abnormal conditions was the displacement, by about 400 km, of 
the North Equatorial Countercurrent (NEC) from its expected 5°-8°N latitude 
range. Instead, it appeared between 2°4°N and merged with the eastward flow 
along the equator. The northern doldrums salinity minimum was encountered 
between 2°-4°N, also south of its normal position. There was also the general 
absence of easterly tradewinds in the equatorial zone between 1°S and 4°N; this 
resulted in frequent rainy squalls from the north and west. Consequently, 
surface flow was eastward rather than westward, and mixed layer temperatures 
around the equator were unusually warm. Advection of low salinity water by the 
NEC and local rainfall caused low surface salinities at the equator. Between 1°-
4°S, salinities increased again as the surface flow carried salty water from the 
central Pacific westward, which counteracted to some extent the freshening 
effect of local rainfall. In the southern doldrums region (between 5°-8°S) the 
surface flow was eastward, carrying low salinity water from the rainy western to 
the drier central South Pacific. The boundaries of the opposing flows were 
marked by well defined upper layer salinity fronts. Beneath the upper layer, the 
property distributions revealed a dome-like structure that was most pronounced 
from 100-500 in. The dome was flanked by thermohaline fronts at 10°-4°N; both 
the North and South Pacific subsurface salinity maxima terminated at these 
fronts. North Pacific waters penetrated into the South Pacific at mid-depths. At 
abyssal depths, however, there was clear evidence that cold, saline, high oxygen 
and low nutrient waters penetrated from the South into the North Pacific (at 
least as far north as the Hess Rise).

The geopotential heights between 4°N and 4°S show a very complex structure with 
several ridges and troughs. Because the geostrophic control within this latitude 
belt is weak, a better picture of the flow is obtained by hull mounted and 
lowered ADCP measurements. According to Firing and Hacker (personal 
communication), in August 1993 the flow in the top 100 m was asymmetric with 
respect to the equator, northeastward between 4°N and 1°S, and westward between 
1°-4°S. Between 100-300 m, the flow in this latitude belt was eastward and 
symmetric around the equator; the core of the undercurrent (50 cm/s) was 
centered near 175 m. Between 300-2000 m, the equatorial flow was westward with 
speeds up to 20 cm/s, and weak eastward flow was observed from 2000-3500 m. 
Beneath 3500 m, the flow was again westward, occasionally reaching 5 cm/s.

The South Equatorial Countercurrent (determined by ADCP) was encountered between 
4°-8°S. The eastward flow reached 20 cm/s at the surface, but it was quite 
shallow, effectively vanishing below 200 in.

A.4.g  SOUTH PACIFIC TRADEWIND REGION (9°S-16°S)

Southeasterly tradewinds normally encountered throughout the region were 
replaced in the north in August 1993 by weak westerly and northwesterly winds. 
Only south of 13°S did the tradewinds reach their normal speeds of 8-10 m/s. At 
this latitude a well defined front (i.e., the southern doldrums front) was 
observed. Like its northern counterpart, the southern doldrums front separated 
the subtropical and equatorial waters. It was marked by a surface salinity 
front, a sharp poleward deepening and spreading of the thermocline and 
halocline, and by the equatorward limit of the subpolar intermediate salinity 
minimum.

The currents north of the southern doldrums front consisted of bands of 
alternating eastward and westward flow, possibly related to mesoscale eddies. 
The bands were about 100 km wide with surface speeds from 10-30 cm/s. South of 
this front the flow was dominated by the westward South Equatorial Current, the 
core of which was located between 13°- 1 5°30°S.  The current had speeds of 30-
40 cm/s near the surface and a volume transport of 32 Sv relative to the bottom. 
Just north of Vanua Levu, Fiji, strong eastward flow was observed along the 
island slope.

Part way through the cruise, the RV Thomas G. Thompson docked at Betio, Tarawa 
in the Republic of Kiribati to change members of the scientific crew. On 
learning that the Kiribateses are very interested in the effects of global 
climate change (as it impacts their low atolls that rise only 4 m above the sea 
surface), the Chief Scientist invited 10 Kiribatese government ministers to a 
"state lunch" aboard the vessel, a lecture and a tour of the ship. The purpose 
of this reception was to familiarize the ministers with the goals of WOCE, to 
share scientific information with a developing Third World nation, and to 
promote international goodwill. The Kiribati officials greatly appreciated this 
gesture and reciprocated by inviting the scientists to a performance of native 
dances.

B.1.  DESCRIPTION OF MEASUREMENT TECHNIQUES AND CALIBRATIONS


BASIC HYDROGRAPHY PROGRAM

The basic hydrography program consisted of salinity, dissolved oxygen and
nutrient (nitrite, nitrate, phosphate and silicate) measurements made from
bottles taken on CTD/rosette casts plus pressure, temperature, salinity and
dissolved oxygen from CTD profiles.  204 CTD/rosette casts were made,
usually to within 10 meters of the bottom.  There were a total of 191 WOCE
casts: stations 1-185 and station 900, which was a series of six 18-bottle
casts every 4 hours at the same position.  Extra casts at stations 651-653
(near a seamount) and 800-803 (1 degree east of the WOCE line and back,
along the equator) were also processed.  Two test casts and four aborted
casts were not included with these final data.  6914 bottles were tripped
resulting in 6875 usable bottles.  The resulting data set met and in many
cases exceeded WHP specifications.  The distribution of samples is
illustrated in figures 1.0.0 and 1.0.1.

             900, 171-185


B.1.1.  WATER SAMPLING PACKAGE

Hydrographic (rosette) casts were performed with a new design of the
rosette system consisting of a 36-bottle ODF-designed rosette frame, a
General Oceanics (GO) Model 1016 36-place pylon and 36 10-liter Bullister-
style PVC bottles.  The frame worked well and held the Lowered Acoustic
Doppler Current Profiler (LADCP) without sacrificing any of the 36
samplers.  The GO pylon had operating problems which could usually be
overcome by the operator through the diagnostics routine.  The Bullister-
style samplers worked well, but had fragile end-cap edges and tight valves.
Recommendations for modifications were made and have since been
implemented.  Underwater electronic components consisted of an ODF-modified
NBIS Mark III CTD (ODF #1) and associated sensors, SeaTech transmissometer
provided by Texas A&M University (TAMU), RDI LADCP, Benthos altimeter and
Benthos pinger.  The CTD was mounted horizontally along the bottom of the
rosette frame, with the transmissometer, dissolved oxygen and secondary PRT
sensors deployed alongside.  The LADCP was mounted vertically in the frame
inside the bottle rings.  The Benthos altimeter provided distance-above-
bottom in the CTD data stream.  The Benthos pinger was monitored during a
cast with a precision depth recorder (PDR) in the ship's laboratory.  The
rosette system was suspended from a three-conductor electro-mechanical (EM)
cable.  Power to the CTD and pylon was provided through the cable from the
ship.  Separate conductors were used for the CTD and pylon signals.
Electronic Deep Sea Reversing Thermometers (DSRTs) were used on this leg to
monitor for CTD pressure or temperature drift.

Each rosette cast was performed to within 10 meters of the bottom, unless
the bottom returns from both the pinger and altimeter were extremely poor,
or the bottom depth exceeded the range of the instrumentation.  Bottles on
the rosette were each identified with a unique serial number.  Usually
these numbers corresponded to the pylon tripping sequence, 1-36, where the
first (deepest) Bottle tripped was bottle #1.  Averages of CTD data
corresponding to the time of bottle closure were associated with the bottle
data during a cast.  Pressure, depth, temperature, salinity, density and
nominally-corrected oxygen were immediately available to facilitate
examination and quality control of the bottle data as the sampling and
laboratory analyses progressed.

The deck watch prepared the rosette approximately 45 minutes prior to a
cast.  All valves, vents and lanyards were checked for proper orientation.
The bottles were cocked and all hardware and connections rechecked.  Upon
arrival on station, time, position and bottom depth were logged and the
deployment begun.  The rosette was moved into position under a projecting
boom from the rosette room using an air-powered cart on tracks.  Two
stabilizing tag lines were threaded through rings on the frame.  CTD sensor
covers were removed, the pinger was turned on and the transmissometer
windows were cleaned.  Once the CTD acquisition and control system in the
ship's laboratory had been initiated by the console operator and the CTD
and pylon had passed their diagnostics, the winch operator raised the
package and extended the boom over the side of the ship.  The package was
then quickly lowered into the water, the tag lines removed and the console
operator notified by radio that the rosette was at the surface.

Recovering the package at the end of deployment was essentially the reverse
of the launching.  Two tag lines connected to air tuggers and terminating
in large snap hooks were manipulated on long poles by the deck watch to
snag recovery rings on the rosette frame.  The package was then lifted out
of the water under tension from the tag lines, the boom retracted, and the
rosette lowered onto the cart.  Sensor covers were replaced, the pinger
turned off and the cart with the rosette moved into the rosette room for
sampling.  A detailed examination of the bottles and rosette would occur
before samples were taken, and any extraordinary situations or
circumstances were noted on the sample log for the cast.

Routine CTD maintenance included soaking the conductivity and CTD O2
sensors in distilled water between casts to maintain sensor stability.  The
rosette was stored in the rosette room between casts to insure the CTD was
not exposed to direct sunlight or wind, in order to maintain the internal
CTD temperature near ambient air temperature.  Exceptions to this procedure
are noted in Appendix C.

Rosette maintenance was performed on a regular basis.  O-rings were changed
as necessary and bottle maintenance performed each day to insure proper
closure and sealing.  Valves were inspected for leaks and repaired or
replaced.


B.1.2.  UNDERWATER ELECTRONICS PACKAGES

CTD data were collected with a modified NBIS Mark III CTD (ODF CTD #1).
This instrument provided pressure, temperature, conductivity and dissolved
O2 channels, and additionally measured a second temperature (FSI
temperature sensor) as a calibration check.  Other data channels included
elapsed-time, an altimeter, several power supply voltages and a
transmissometer.  The instrument supplied a standard 15-byte NBIS-format
data stream at a data rate of 25 fps.  Modifications to the instrument
included a revised dissolved O2 sensor mounting; ODF-designed sensor
interfaces for the FSI PRT and the SeaTech transmissometer; implementation
of 8-bit and 16-bit multiplexer channels; an elapsed-time channel;
instrument ID in the polarity byte and power supply voltages channels.


Figure 1.2.0 summarizes the serial numbers of instruments and sensors used
             during P14N.

             Table 1.2.0 P14N Instrument/Sensor Serial Numbers


The O2 sensor was deployed in an ODF-designed pressure-compensated holder
assembly mounted separately on the rosette frame and connected to the CTD
by an underwater cable.  The transmissometer interface was designed and
built by ODF using an off-the-shelf 12-bit A/D converter.

Although the secondary temperature sensor was located within 6-8 inches of
the CTD conductivity sensor, it was not sufficiently close to calculate
coherent salinities.  It was used as a secondary temperature calibration
reference rather than as a redundant sensor, with the intent of eliminating
the need for mercury or electronic DSRTs as calibration checks.
Standard CTD maintenance procedures included soaking the conductivity
sensor in deionized water and placing a cap on the O2 sensor between casts
to maintain sensor stability, and protecting the CTD from exposure to
direct sunlight or wind to maintain an equilibrated internal temperature.

The General Oceanics (GO) 1016 36-place pylon was used in conjunction with
the GO pylon deck unit.  There were numerous tripping problems caused by
the GO pylon/deck unit combination; 80% of these occurred during the first
12 casts.  Usually these could be resolved by the console operator via the
pylon diagnostics routine.  The pylon emitted a confirmation message
containing its current notion of bottle trip position, which was an aid in
sorting out mis-trips.  Using the GO pylon and deck unit also contributed
to the magnitude of the variance of salinity differences.  The pylon would
take a variable amount of time to trip a bottle after the trip had been
initiated.  The time varied from 8 seconds to over 30 seconds.  The
acquisition software began averaging data corresponding to the rosette trip
as soon as the trip was initiated, ending when the trip confirmed.
Consequently, CTD rosette trip data used for the differences contained
variable-length averages.


B.1.3.  NAVIGATION AND BATHYMETRY DATA ACQUISITION

Navigation data and underway bathymetry were acquired from the ship's Bathy
2000 or HydroSweep systems via RS-232.  Data were logged automatically at
one-minute intervals by one of the Sun SPARCstations to provide a time-
series of underway position, course, speed and bathymetry data. These data
were used for all station positions, PDR depths and bathymetry on vertical
sections [Cart80].


B.1.4.  CTD DATA ACQUISITION, PROCESSING AND CONTROL SYSTEM

The CTD data acquisition, processing  and control system consisted of a Sun
SPARCstation 2 computer workstation, ODF-built CTD deck unit, General
Oceanics 1016 pylon deck unit, CTD and pylon power supplies, and a VCR
recorder for real-time analog backup recording of the sea-cable signal.
The Sun system consisted of a color display with trackball and keyboard
(the CTD console), 18 RS-232 ports, 2.5 GB disk and 8mm cartridge tape.
One other Sun SPARCstation 2 system was networked to the data acquisition
system, as well as to the rest of the networked computers aboard the
Thompson.  These systems were available for real-time CTD data display as
well as for providing hydrographic data management and backup.  Each Sun
SPARCstation was equipped with a printer and an 8-color drum plotter.

The CTD FSK signal was demodulated and converted to a 9600 baud RS-232C
binary data stream by the CTD deck unit.  This data stream was fed to the
Sun SPARCstation.  The pylon deck unit was connected to the data
acquisition system through a serial port, allowing the data acquisition
system to initiate and confirm bottle trips.  A bitmapped color display
provided interactive graphical display and control of the CTD rosette
sampling system, including real-time raw and processed data, navigation,
winch and rosette trip displays.

The CTD data acquisition, processing and control system was prepared by the
console watch a few minutes before each deployment.  A console operations
log was maintained for each deployment, containing a record of every
attempt to trip a bottle as well as any pertinent comments.  Most CTD
console control functions, including starting the data acquisition, were
initiated by pointing and clicking a trackball cursor on the display at
icons representing functions to perform.  The system then presented the
operator with short dialog prompts with automatically-generated choices
that could either be accepted as default or overridden.  The operator was
instructed to turn on the CTD and pylon power supplies, then to examine a
real-time CTD data display on the screen for stable voltages from the
underwater unit.  Once this was accomplished, the data acquisition and
processing was begun and a time and position automatically associated with
the beginning of the cast.  A backup analog recording of the CTD signal was
made on a VCR tape, which was started at the same time as the data
acquisition.  A rosette trip display and pylon control window then popped
up, giving visual confirmation that the pylon was initializing properly.
Various plots and displays were initiated.  When all was ready, the console
operator informed the deck watch by radio.

Once the deck watch had deployed the rosette and informed the console
operator that the rosette was at the surface (also confirmed by the
computer displays), the console operator or watch leader provided the winch
operator with a target depth (wire-out) and maximum lowering rate, normally
60 meters/minute for this package.  The package then began its descent.

The console operator examined the processed CTD data during descent via
interactive plot windows on the display, which could also be run at other
workstations on the network.  Additionally, the operator decided where to
trip bottles on the up-cast, noting this on the console log.  The PDR was
monitored to insure the bottom depth was known at all times.

The watch leader assisted the console operator when the package was ~400
meters above the bottom by monitoring the range to the bottom using the
distance between the rosette's pinger signal and its bottom reflection
displayed on the PDR.  Between 100 and 60 meters above the bottom,
depending on bottom conditions, the altimeter typically began signaling a
bottom return on the console.  The winch and altimeter displays allowed the
watch leader to refine the target depth relayed to the winch operator and
safely approach to within 10 meters of the bottom.

Bottles were tripped by pointing the console trackball cursor at a graphic
firing control and clicking a button.  The data acquisition system
responded with the CTD rosette trip data and a pylon confirmation message
in a window.  All tripping attempts were noted on the console log.  The
console operator then directed the winch operator to the next bottle stop.
The console operator was also responsible for generating the sample log for
the cast.

After the last bottle was tripped, the console operator directed the deck
watch to bring the rosette on deck.  Once on deck, the console operator
terminated the data acquisition and turned off the CTD, pylon and VCR
recording.  The VCR tape was filed.  Usually the console operator also
brought the sample log to the rosette room and served as the sample cop.


B.1.5.  CTD LABORATORY CALIBRATION PROCEDURES

Pre-cruise laboratory calibrations of the CTD pressure and temperature
sensors were used to generate tables of corrections applied by the CTD data
acquisition and processing software at sea.  These laboratory calibrations
were also performed post-cruise.

Pressure and temperature calibrations were performed on CTD #1 at the ODF
Calibration Facility in La Jolla.  The pre-cruise calibration was done in
May 1993 before the start of the P17N expedition, and the post-cruise
calibration was done in October 1993.

The CTD pressure transducer was calibrated in a temperature-controlled
water bath to a Ruska Model 2400 Piston Gage pressure reference.
Calibration curves were measured at 0.01, 11.74 and 31.22 deg.C to 2
maximum loading pressures (2775 and 6080 db) pre-cruise, and at 1.62 and
32.13 deg.C to 2 maximum loading pressures (1400 and 6080 db) post-cruise.
Figure 1.5.0 summarizes the laboratory pressure calibration performed in
May 1993 and Figure 1.5.1 summarizes the pressure calibrations done in
October 1993.


Figure 1.5.0 Pressure calibration for ODF CTD #1, May 1993.

Figure 1.5.1 Pressure calibration for ODF CTD #1, October 1993.


Additionally, dynamic thermal-response step tests were conducted on the
pressure transducer to calibrate dynamic thermal effects.

CTD PRT temperatures were calibrated to an NBIS ATB-1250 resistance bridge
and Rosemount standard PRT in a temperature-controlled bath.  The primary
CTD temperature was offset by ~1.5 deg.C to avoid the 0-point discontinuity
inherent in the internal digitizing circuitry.  Figures 1.5.2 and 1.5.3
summarize the laboratory calibrations performed on the primary PRT during
May and October 1993.

These laboratory temperature calibrations were referenced to an ITS-90
standard.  Temperatures were converted to the IPTS-68 standard during
processing in order to calculate other parameters, including salinity and
density, which are currently defined in terms of that standard only.


Figure 1.5.2 Temperature calibration for ODF CTD #1, May 1993.

Figure 1.5.3 Temperature calibration for ODF CTD #1, October 1993.


B.1.6.  CTD CALIBRATION PROCEDURES

This cruise was the second of 2 consecutive Pacific Ocean WOCE cruises
using this CTD.  A redundant sensor was used as a temperature calibration
check while at sea; the FSI PRT sensor was deployed as a second temperature
channel and compared with the primary PRT channel on most casts.

Comparison of the two PRT sensors did not show any appreciable drift during
these expeditions.  The response times of the sensors were first matched,
then the temperatures compared for a series of standard depths from each
CTD down-cast.  There was a constant offset maintained between the 2 PRTs
throughout both legs.  Figure 1.6.0 summarizes the comparison between the
primary and secondary PRT channels.


Figure 1.6.0 Comparison between the primary and secondary PRT channels.


CTD conductivity and dissolved O2 were calibrated to in-situ check samples
collected during each rosette cast.  The stability of the conductivity
calibration also verified that there were no significant shifts in the CTD
pressure or temperature.

CTD PRESSURE AND TEMPERATURE

The final pressure and temperature calibrations were verified during post-
cruise processing.  There was a 1.5 db slope change from 0-6000 db between
the pre- and post-cruise cold "deep" pressure laboratory calibrations, as
well as an ~1.5 db offset between the 2 calibrations.  In order to
determine when the shift occurred, start-of-cast out-of-water pressure and
temperature data from the cruise were compared with similar data from the
pre- and post-cruise laboratory calibrations for temperature.  The pressure
data from the cruise were within 0.5 db of the pre-cruise laboratory data
at all temperatures, so it was decided to leave the pre-cruise pressure
calibrations, applied during the cruise, unchanged.

The primary temperature sensor (Rosemount Model 171BJ Serial No. 14304)
laboratory calibration shows essentially the same curve pre- and post-
cruise, with at most a .0004 deg.C shift in the range of 10-27 deg.C;
colder and warmer than that range, the curves are essentially identical.
It was therefore decided to leave the pre-cruise PRT #1 correction in place
for this data set.

The secondary temperature sensor (FSI Model OTM-D212 Serial No. 1320)
laboratory calibrations pre- and post-cruise showed some differences, but
the same temperature ranges were not measured and FSI sensors show greater
variability than Rosemount sensors.  There did not appear to be any major
shift, perhaps an ~1 millidegree shift in the range of 1-20 deg.C.

A single rack of electronic DSRT pressure and temperature sensors was also
deployed on ~75% of the P14N casts as a further check for pressure and
temperature drift.  Although factory calibrations only were applied to
these electronic data, the comparisons for temperature were quite stable
for any specific DSRT.  This further verified the absence of any drift in
CTD temperature during the cruise.  The DSRT-CTD pressure differences were
scattered to several times the magnitude of the pre- to post-cruise
laboratory calibration shift; they were not useful for monitoring CTD
pressure drift.


CONDUCTIVITY

The CTD rosette trip pressure and temperature were used with the bottle
salinity to calculate a bottle conductivity.  Differences between the
bottle and CTD conductivities were then used to derive a conductivity
correction as a linear function of conductivity.

Cast-by-cast comparisons showed only minor shifts in the conductivity
sensor offset and no slope changes, aside from the expected shift caused by
cleaning the sea-slime contaminated sensor with alcohol between stations 47
and 48.  Conductivity differences were fit to CTD conductivity for all
casts in two groups, 1-47 and 48 to the end of the cruise, to determine the
mean conductivity slope.  The mean conductivity slope corrections are
summarized in figure 1.6.1.


Figure 1.6.1 Mean conductivity slope corrections.


After applying the conductivity slopes, residual CTD #1 conductivity offset
values were calculated and applied for each cast using the deepest bottle
conductivities.  Some offsets were then manually re-adjusted to account for
discontinuous shifts in the conductivity transducer response or bottle
salinities, or to maintain deep theta-salinity consistency from cast to
cast.  Figure 1.6.2 summarizes the final applied conductivity offsets by
station number.


Figure 1.6.2 CTD conductivity offsets by station number.


P14N temperature and conductivity correction coefficients are also
tabulated in Appendix A.

Figures 1.6.3, 1.6.4 and 1.6.5 summarize the residual differences between
bottle and CTD salinities after applying the conductivity corrections.
Stations 35-47 are missing from the final differences plots because of
problems with CTD conductivity offsets during the up-cast caused by sensor
contamination.  The conductivity corrections for those casts insure
consistency of the down-cast CTD data with bottle data and nearby CTD
casts.


Figure 1.6.3 Salinity residual differences vs pressure (after correction).

Figure 1.6.4 Salinity residual differences vs station # (after correction).

Figure 1.6.5 Deep salinity residual differences vs station # (after correction).


The CTD conductivity calibration represents a best estimate of the
conductivity field throughout the water column.  3 from the mean residual
in Figures 1.6.4 and 1.6.5, or +/-0.009 PSU for all salinities and +/-0.001
PSU for deep salinities, represents the limit of repeatability of the
bottle salinities (Autosal, rosette, operators and samplers).  This limit
agrees with station overlays of deep T-S.  Within a cast (a single
salinometer run), the precision of bottle salinities appears to exceed
0.001 PSU.  The precision of the CTD salinities appears to exceed 0.0005
PSU.


CTD DISSOLVED OXYGEN

There are a number of problems with the response characteristics of the
Sensormedics O2 sensor used in the NBIS Mark III CTD, the major ones being
a secondary thermal response and a sensitivity to profiling velocity.
Because of these problems, up-cast CTD rosette trip data cannot be
optimally calibrated to O2 check samples.  Instead, down-cast CTD O2 data
are derived by matching the up-cast rosette trips along isopycnal surfaces.
When down-casts were deemed to be unusable (see Appendix C), up-cast CTD O2
data were processed despite the signal drop-offs typically seen at bottle
stops.  The differences between CTD O2 data modeled from these derived
values and check samples are then minimized using a non-linear least-
squares fitting procedure.

Figures 1.6.6 and 1.6.7 show the residual differences between the corrected
CTD O2 and the bottle O2 (ml/l) for each station.  The data from stations
35-47 are missing because of the previously noted problems with CTD
conductivity offsetting during up-casts: density surfaces would be
difficult to match when one cast direction is unstable.


Figure 1.6.6 O2 residual differences vs station # (after correction).

Figure 1.6.7 Deep O2 residual differences vs station # (after correction).


Note that the mean of the differences is not zero, because the O2 values
are weighted by pressure before fitting.  The standard deviations of 0.10
ml/l for all oxygens and 0.02 ml/l for deep oxygens are only intended as
metrics of the goodness of the fits.  ODF makes no claims regarding the
precision or accuracy of CTD dissolved O2 data.

The general form of the ODF O2 conversion equation follows Brown and
Morrison [Brow78] and Millard [Mill82], [Owen85].  ODF does not use a
digitized O2 sensor temperature to model the secondary thermal response but
instead models membrane and sensor temperatures by low-pass filtering the
PRT temperature.  In-situ pressure and temperature are filtered to match
the sensor response.  Time-constants for the pressure response p, and two
temperature responses Ts and Tf are fitting parameters.  The sensor
current, or Oc, gradient is approximated by low-pass filtering 1st-order Oc
differences.  This term attempts to correct for reduction of species other
than O2 at the cathode.  The time-constant for this filter, og, is a
fitting parameter.  Oxygen partial-pressure is then calculated:

     Opp=[c1Oc+c2]fsat(S,T,P)e(c3Pl+c4Tf+c5Ts+c6___)                (1.6.0)

where:

Opp           = Dissolved O2 partial-pressure in atmospheres (atm);
Oc            = Sensor current (amps);
fsat(S,T,P)   = O2 saturation partial-pressure at S,T,P (atm);
S             = Salinity at O2 response-time (PSUs);
T             = Temperature at O2 response-time (deg.C);
P             = Pressure at O2 response-time (decibars);
Pl            = Low-pass filtered pressure (decibars);
Tf            = Fast low-pass filtered temperature (deg.C);
Ts            = Slow low-pass filtered temperature (deg.C);
___           = Sensor current gradient (amps/secs).


P14N CTD O2 correction coefficients (c1 through c6) are tabulated in
Appendix B.


B.1.7.  CTD DATA PROCESSING

ODF CTD processing software consists of over 30 programs running under the
Unix operating system.  The initial CTD processing program (ctdba) is used
either in real-time or with existing raw data sets to:

o   Convert raw CTD scans into scaled engineering units, and assign
    the data to logical channels;
o   Filter specific channels according to specified filtering
    criteria;
o   Apply sensor or instrument-specific response-correction models;
o   Provide periodic averages of the channels corresponding to the
    output time-series interval; and
o   Store the output time-series in a CTD-independent format.

Once the CTD data are reduced to a standard-format time-series, they can be
manipulated in a number of various ways.  Channels can be additionally
filtered.  The time-series can be split up into shorter time-series or
pasted together to form longer time-series.  A time-series can be
transformed into a pressure-series, or a larger-interval time-series.  The
pressure calibration corrections are applied during reduction of the data
to time-series.  Temperature, conductivity and oxygen corrections to the
series are maintained in separate files and are applied whenever the data
are accessed.

ODF data acquisition software acquired and processed the CTD data in real-
time, providing calibrated, processed data for interactive plotting and
reporting during a cast.  The 25 hz data from the CTD were filtered,
response-corrected and averaged to a 2 hz (0.5 seconds) time-series.
Sensor correction and calibration models were applied to pressure,
temperature, conductivity and O2.  Rosette trip data were extracted from
this time-series in response to trip initiation and confirmation signals.
The calibrated 2 hz time-series data were stored on disk (as were the 25 hz
raw data) and were available in real-time for reporting and graphical
display.  At the end of the cast, various consistency and calibration
checks were performed, and a 2.0 db pressure-series of the down-cast was
generated and subsequently used for reports and plots.

CTD plots generated automatically at the completion of deployment were
checked daily for potential problems.  The two PRT temperature sensors were
inter-calibrated and checked for sensor drift.  The CTD conductivity sensor
was monitored by comparing CTD values to check-sample conductivities and by
deep T-S comparisons with adjacent stations.  The CTD O2 sensor was
calibrated to check-sample data.

A few casts exhibited conductivity offsets due to biological or particulate
artifacts.  Some casts were subject to noise in 1 or more channels caused
by sea cable or slip-ring problems.  For extremely noisy casts, the 2 hz
time series were regenerated from the 25 hz data using tighter filtering
criteria on the noisy channel(s).  This was done for stations 8-40,
especially for the CTD O2 channel, which is not typically filtered during
the 25 hz to 2 hz averaging process.  Otherwise, intermittent noisy data
were filtered from the 2 hz data using a spike-removal filter that replaced
points exceeding a specified multiple of the standard deviation least-
squares polynomial fit of specified order of segments of the data.  The
filtered points were replaced by the filtering polynomial value.

Density inversions can appear in high-gradient regions.  Detailed
examination of the raw data shows significant mixing occurring in these
areas because of ship roll.  Although the weather was excellent for most of
the cruise, there was rough weather and excessive ship-roll during stations
32-48.  In order to minimize density inversions, a ship-roll filter was
applied to all casts during pressure-sequencing to disallow pressure
reversals.

Pressure intervals with no time-series data can optionally be filled by
double-parabolic interpolation.

When the down-cast CTD data have excessive noise, gaps or offsets, the up-
cast data are used instead.  CTD data from down- and up-casts are not mixed
together in the pressure-series data because they do not represent
identical water columns (due to ship movement, wire angles, etc.).  The six
up-casts used for final P14N data are indicated in Appendix C.

Both transmissometers displayed a thermally-induced minimum, centered
around 500db, for most of the cruise.  Tests or attempted repairs are noted
in Appendix C.  Transmissometer data have not been processed beyond
shipboard conversion from 25 hz to 2 hz time series, and are not included
with final ODF CTD data.  Wilf Gardner at TAMU should be contacted with any
questions regarding transmissometer data.

Appendix C contains a table of CTD casts requiring special attention; P14N
CTD-related comments, problems and solutions are documented in detail.


1.8.  BOTTLE SAMPLING

At the end of each rosette deployment water samples were drawn from the
bottles in the following order:

o   CFCs;
o   Helium;
o   Oxygen;
o   Partial Pressure of CO2;
o   Total CO2;
o   pH;
o   Tritium;
o   Nutrients;
o   Salinity.

The correspondence between individual sample containers and the rosette
bottle from which the sample was drawn was recorded on the sample log for
the cast.  This log also included any comments or anomalous conditions
noted about the rosette and bottles.  One member of the sampling team was
designated the sample cop, whose sole responsibility was to maintain this
log and insure that sampling progressed in proper drawing order.

Normal sampling practice included opening the drain valve before opening
the air vent on the bottle, indicating an air leak if water escaped.  This
observation together with other diagnostic comments (e.g., "lanyard caught
in lid", "valve left open") that might later prove useful in determining
sample integrity were routinely noted on the sample log.

Drawing oxygen samples also involved taking the sample draw temperature
from the bottle.  The temperature was noted on the sample log and was
sometimes useful in determining leaking or mis-tripped bottles.

Once individual samples had been drawn and properly prepared, they were
distributed to their respective laboratories for analysis.  Oxygen,
nutrients and salinity analyses were performed on computer-assisted (PC)
analytical equipment networked to Sun SPARCstations for centralized data
analysis.  The analyst for a specific property was responsible for insuring
that their results were updated into the cruise database.

There were many tripping problems on this leg.  The General Oceanics pylon
had firmware/electronics problems throughout the cruise.  However, there
were no apparent major mechanical flaws.  About 39 of the 6914 tripped
bottles were coded as leaking because of lanyards hung in the top lids,
rather than coded as leaking or did not trip correctly because of pylon
problems.  The bottles that did not trip as planned were re-associated with
the correct CTD level.  See Underwater Electronics Packages for further
details.

ODF suspects bottle 1 leaked slightly, but frequently.  The PI disagrees
and at his requests, the data coding does not reflect a leaking bottle.
See Oxygen Analysis for details.


B.1.9.  BOTTLE DATA PROCESSING

The first stage of bottle data processing consisted of verifying and
validating individual samples, and checking the sample log (the sample
inventory) for consistency.  At this stage, bottle tripping problems were
usually resolved, sometimes resulting in changes to the pressure,
temperature and other CTD properties associated with the bottle.  Note that
the rosette bottle number was the primary identification for all samples
taken from the bottle, as well as for the CTD data associated with the
bottle.  All CTD trips were retained (whether confirmed or not), so
resolving bottle tripping problems simply consisted of assigning the right
rosette bottle number to the right CTD trip level.

Diagnostic comments from the sample log were entered into the computer as
part of the quality control procedure.  Every potential problem indicated
in these computer files were investigated.  The data were coded with the
results of the investigation.

The second stage of processing began once all the samples for a cast had
been accounted for.  All samples for bottles suspected of leaking were
checked to see if the property was consistent with the profile for the
cast, with adjacent stations, and, where applicable, with the CTD data.
All comments from the analysts were examined and turned into appropriate
WHP water sample codes.  Oxygen flask numbers were verified, as each flask
is individually calibrated and significantly affects the calculated O2
concentration.

The third stage of processing continued throughout the cruise and until the
data set is considered "final".  Various property-property plots and
vertical sections were examined for both consistency within a cast and
consistency with adjacent stations.  In conjunction with this process the
analysts would review and sometimes revise their data as additional
calibration or diagnostic results became available.  Assignment of a WHP
water sample code to an anomalous sample value was typically achieved
through consensus, usually also involving one of the chief scientists.

WHP water bottle quality flags were assigned with the following
additional interpretations:

      |
   3  | An air leak large enough to produce an observable
      | effect on a sample is identified by a code of 3 on the
      | bottle and a code of 4 on the oxygen.  (Small air
      | leaks may have no observable effect, or may only
      | affect gas samples.)
   4  | Bottles tripped at other than the intended depth were
      | assigned a code of 4.  There may be no problems with
      | the associated water sample data.

WHP water sample quality flags were assigned using the following
criteria:

      |
   1  | The sample for this measurement was drawn from a
      | bottle, but the results of the analysis were not (yet)
      | received.
   2  | Acceptable measurement.
   3  | Questionable measurement.  The data did not fit the
      | station profile or adjacent station comparisons (or
      | possibly CTD data comparisons).  No notes from the
      | analyst indicated a problem.  The data could be
      | correct, but are open to interpretation.
   4  | Bad measurement.  Does not fit the station profile,
      | adjacent stations or CTD data.  There were analytical
      | notes indicating a problem, but data values were
      | reported.  Sampling and analytical errors were also
      | coded as 4.
   5  | Not reported.  There should always be a reason
      | associated with a code of 5, usually that the sample
      | was lost, contaminated or rendered unusable.
   9  | The sample for this measurement was not drawn.

WHP water sample quality flags were assigned to the CTDSAL (CTD
salinity) parameter as follows:

      |
   2  | Acceptable measurement.
   3  | Questionable measurement.  The data did not fit the
      | bottle data, or there was a CTD conductivity
      | calibration shift during the up-cast.
   4  | Bad measurement.  The CTD up-cast data were determined
      | to be unusable for calculating a salinity.
   8  | The CTD salinity was derived from the CTD down cast,
      | matched on an isopycnal surface.

WHP water sample quality flags were assigned to the CTDOXY (CTD
O2) parameter as follows:

      |
   2  | Acceptable measurement.
   4  | Bad measurement.  The CTD data were determined to be
      | unusable for calculating a dissolved oxygen
      | concentration.
   5  | Not reported.  The CTD data could not be reported.
   9  | Not sampled.  No operational CTD O2 sensor was present
      | on this cast.


Note that all CTDOXY values were derived from the pressure-series CTD data,
typically down-casts.  CTD data were matched to the up-cast bottle data
along isopycnal surfaces.  If the CTD salinity was footnoted as bad or
questionable, the CTD O2 is blank.

Table 1.9.0 shows the number of samples drawn and the number of times each
WHP sample quality flag was assigned for each basic hydrographic property:

Additionally, all WHP water bottle/sample quality code comments are
presented in Appendix D.


B.1.10.  PRESSURE AND TEMPERATURES

All pressures and temperatures for the bottle data tabulations on the
rosette casts were obtained by averaging CTD data for a brief interval at
the time the bottle was closed on the rosette, then correcting the data
based on CTD laboratory calibrations.

The temperatures are reported using the International Temperature Scale of
1990.


B.1.11.  SALINITY ANALYSIS

Salinity samples were drawn into 200 ml Kimax high alumina borosilicate
bottles after 3 rinses, and were sealed with custom-made plastic insert
thimbles and Nalgene screw caps.  This assembly provides very low container
dissolution and sample evaporation.  As loose inserts were found, they were
replaced to insure a continued airtight seal.  Salinity was determined
after a box of samples had equilibrated to laboratory temperature, usually
within 8-12 hours of collection.  The draw time and equilibration time, as
well as per-sample analysis time and temperature were logged.

Two Guildline Autosal Model 8400A salinometers (55-654 and 57-396) were
used to measure salinities.  These were located in a temperature-controlled
laboratory.  The salinometers were modified by ODF and contained interfaces
for computer-aided measurement.  A computer (PC) prompted the analyst for
control functions (changing sample, flushing) while it made continuous
measurements and logged results.  The salinometer cell was flushed until
successive readings met software criteria for consistency, then two
successive measurements were made and averaged for a final result.

The salinometer was standardized for each cast with IAPSO Standard Seawater
(SSW) Batch P-122, using at least one fresh vial per cast.  The estimated
accuracy of bottle salinities run at sea is usually better than 0.002 PSU
relative to the particular Standard Seawater batch used.  PSS-78 salinity
[UNES81] was then calculated for each sample from the measured conductivity
ratios, and the results merged with the cruise database.

Salinometer 57-396 was used on stations 022-025.  Salinometer 55-654 was
used on all other stations.  A thermistor failed in 55-654 prior to 021/01
and was replaced.

6887 salinity measurements were made from the rosette stations.  380 vials
of standard water were used.  The temperature stability of the laboratory
used to make the measurements was acceptable (usually within 4 deg.C of the
salinometer bath temperature).  There were no substantial problems noted
with the analyses.  The salinities were used to calibrate the CTD
conductivity sensor.


B.1.12.  OXYGEN ANALYSIS

Samples were collected for dissolved oxygen analyses soon after the rosette
sampler was brought on board and after CFC and helium were drawn.  Nominal
125 ml volume-calibrated iodine flasks were rinsed twice with minimal
agitation, then filled via a drawing tube, and allowed to overflow for at
least 3 flask volumes.  The sample temperature was measured with a small
platinum resistance thermometer embedded in the drawing tube.  Draw
temperatures were very useful in detecting possible bad trips even as
samples were being drawn.  Reagents were added to fix the oxygen before
stoppering.  The flasks were shaken twice to assure thorough dispersion of
the MnO(OH)2 precipitate.  They were shaken once immediately after drawing,
and then again after 20 minutes.  The samples were analyzed within 4-36
hours of collection.

Dissolved oxygen analyses were performed with an SIO-designed automated
oxygen titrator using photometric end-point detection based on the
absorption of 365 nm wavelength ultra-violet light.  Thiosulfate was
dispensed by a Dosimat 665 buret driver fitted with a 1.0 ml buret.  ODF
uses a whole-bottle modified-Winkler titration following the technique of
Carpenter [Carp65] with modifications by Culberson et. al [Culb91], but
with higher concentrations of potassium iodate standard (approximately
0.012N) and thiosulfate solution (50 gm/l).  Standard solutions prepared
from pre-weighed potassium iodate crystals were run at the beginning of
each session of analyses, which typically included from 1 to 3 stations.
Several standards were made up during the cruise and compared to assure
that the results were reproducible, and to preclude the possibility of a
weighing error.  Reagent/distilled water blanks were determined to account
for oxidizing or reducing materials in the reagents.  The auto-titrator
generally performed very well.

The samples were titrated and the data logged by the PC control software.
The data were then used to update the cruise database on the Sun
SPARCstations.

Thiosulfate normalities and blanks, calculated from each standardization
and corrected to 20 deg.C, were plotted versus time and were reviewed for
possible problems.  New thiosulfate normalities were recalculated after the
blanks had been smoothed.  These normalities were then smoothed, and the
oxygen data were recalculated.

Oxygens were converted from milliliters per liter to micromoles per
kilogram using the in-situ temperature.  Ideally, for whole-bottle
titrations, the conversion temperature should be the temperature of the
water issuing from the bottle spigot.  The sample temperatures were
measured at the time the samples were drawn from the bottle, but were not
used in the conversion from milliliters per liter to micromoles per
kilogram because the software was not available.  Aberrant drawing
temperatures provided an additional flag indicating that a bottle may not
have tripped properly.

Oxygen flasks were calibrated gravimetrically with degassed deionized water
(DIW) to determine flask volumes at ODF's chemistry laboratory.  This is
done once before using flasks for the first time and periodically
thereafter when a suspect bottle volume is detected.  All volumetric
glassware used in preparing standards is calibrated as well as the 10 ml
Dosimat buret used to dispense standard iodate solution.

Iodate standards are pre-weighed in ODF's chemistry laboratory to a nominal
weight of 0.44xx grams and exact normality calculated at sea.  Potassium
iodate (KIO3) is obtained from Johnson Matthey Chemical Co.  and is
reported by the supplier to be > 99.4% pure.  All other reagents are
"reagent grade" and are tested for levels of oxidizing and reducing
impurities prior to use.

6884 oxygen measurements from the rosette stations were made.  There is a
difference of 0.4 to 3.2 umol/kg in dissolved O2 at the maximum bottle
depth for some of the stations.  These stations had 2 bottles (bottle 1 and
2) tripped at the maximum bottle depth as scheduled by the PI to assess
variability.  It appears that the dissolved O2 from bottle 1 was lower if
there was a difference between these two bottles; there are some
exceptions.  No analytical error could explain a lower oxygen.  The PI
requested that these oxygens be deemed acceptable.

ODF suspects bottle 1 leaked slightly, but frequently.  In the 1000 meters
above bottle 1, there is typically very little change in salinity, and
about 10% change in nutrients, but a 25% change in oxygen, making it the
most sensitive to leaks in the first few minutes after tripping the bottle.
The PI does not agree that the bottle was leaking and at his request, the
coding does not reflect a leaking bottle or questionable data.

At the following stations, the oxygens of bottle 1 were significantly lower
than at bottle 2:

     011, 051, 053, 059, 066, 088, 094, 095, 096, 097, 098, 099, 103, 104,
     105, 106, 110, 111, 113, 114, 116, 120, 122, 125, 126, 127, 130, 131,
     133, 134, 136, 139, 140, 141, 142, 801, 802, 143, 803, 144, 145, 146,
     148, 152, 154, 155, 157, 158, 159, 162, 164, 165, 166, 167, 172, 174

At the following stations, the oxygens of bottle 1 were significantly
higher than at bottle 2 and adjoining stations:

     065, 069, 091, 128, 183

The oxygen data were used to calibrate the CTD O2 sensor.


B.1.13.  NUTRIENT ANALYSIS

Nutrient samples were drawn into 45 ml high density polypropylene, narrow
mouth, screw-capped centrifuge tubes which were rinsed three times before
filling.  Standardizations were performed at the beginning and end of each
group of analyses (one cast, usually 36 samples) with a set of an
intermediate concentration standard prepared for each run from secondary
standards.  These secondary standards were in turn prepared aboard ship by
dilution from dry, pre-weighed primary standards.  Sets of 5-6 different
concentrations of shipboard standards were analyzed periodically to
determine the deviation from linearity as a function of concentration for
each nutrient.

Nutrient analyses (phosphate, silicate, nitrate and nitrite) were performed
on an ODF-modified 4-channel Technicon AutoAnalyzer II, generally within
one hour of the cast.  Occasionally some samples were refrigerated at 2 to
6 deg.C for a maximum of 4 hours.  The methods used are described by Gordon
et al. [Atla71] [Hage72], [Gord92]., The colorimeter output from each of
the four channels were digitized and logged automatically by computer (PC),
then split into absorbence peaks.  All the runs were manually verified.

Silicate is analyzed using the technique of Armstrong et al. [Arms67].
Ammonium molybdate is added to a seawater sample to produce silicomolybdic
acid which is then reduced to silicomolybdous acid (a blue compound)
following the addition of stannous chloride.  Tartaric acid is also added
to impede PO4 contamination.  The sample is passed through a 15 mm flowcell
and the absorbence measured at 820nm.  ODF's methodology is known to be
non-linear at high silicate concentrations (>120 uM); a correction for this
non-linearity is applied in ODF's software.

Modifications of the Armstrong et al. [Arms67] techniques for nitrate and
nitrite analysis are also used.  The seawater sample for nitrate analysis
is passed through a cadmium column where the nitrate is reduced to nitrite.
Sulfanilamide is introduced, reacting with the nitrite, then
N-(1-naphthyl)ethylenediamine dihydrochloride which couples to form a red
azo dye.  The reaction product is then passed through a 15 mm flowcell and
the absorbence measured at 540 nm.  The same technique is employed for
nitrite analysis, except the cadmium column is not present, and a 50 mm
flowcell is used.

Phosphate is analyzed using a modification of the Bernhardt and Wilhelms
[Bern67] technique.  Ammonium molybdate is added to the sample to produce
phosphomolybdic acid, then reduced to phosphomolybdous acid (a blue
compound) following the addition of dihydrazine sulfate.  The reaction
product is heated to ~55 deg.C to enhance color development, then passed
through a 50 mm flowcell and the absorbence measured at 820 nm.

Nutrients reported in micromoles per kilogram were converted from
micromoles per liter by dividing by sample density calculated at 1 atm
pressure, in-situ salinity, and an assumed laboratory temperature of 25
deg.C.

Na2SiF6, the silicate primary standard, is obtained from Fluka Chemical
Company and Fisher Scientific and is reported by the suppliers to be >98%
pure.  Primary standards for nitrate (KNO3), nitrite (NaNO2), and phosphate
(KH2PO4) are obtained from Johnson Matthey Chemical Co. and the supplier
reports purities of 99.999%, 97%, and 99.999%, respectively.

6893 nutrient analyses were performed.  The AA generally performed well,
with minor pump and sampler problems.


B.1.14.  CFC-11 and CFC-12 MEASUREMENTS 
         (Dr. Mark J. Warner, Mr. Steven Covey, University of Washington

SAMPLE COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS

Samples for CFC analysis were drawn from the 10-liter Niskins into 100-cc ground 
glass syringes fitted with plastic stopcocks. These samples were the first 
aliquots drawn from the particular Niskins. There is no evidence of high 
contamination levels of the CFC samples resulting from the Niskin bottles.

The samples were analyzed using a CFC extraction and analysis system of Dr. 
Richard Gammon of the University of Washington. The analytical procedure and 
data analysis are described by Bullister and Weiss (1988). Dr. Warner and his 
technician set up the analytic system in Sitka, Alaska and transited aboard the 
R.V. Thompson to Dutch Harbor, Alaska to ensure that the instrument was working 
properly. The CFC concentrations in air were measured approximately twice per 
day during this expedition. Air was pumped to the main laboratory from the bow 
through Dekabon tubing.

CALIBRATION

A working standard, calibrated on the SIO1993 scale, was used to calibrate the 
response of the electron capture detector of the Shimadzu Mini-2 GC to the CFCs. 
This standard, Airco cylinder CC88098, contained gas with CFC-11 and CFC-12 
concentrations of 267.20 parts per trillion (ppt) and 502.32 ppt, respectively. 

SAMPLING BLANKS

There is always a small amount of contamination of the CFCs in the sampling and 
analysis of water samples. We have attempted to estimate this level of 
contamination by taking the mode of measured CFC concentration in samples which 
should be CFC-free. In this region, measurements of other transient tracers such 
as carbon-14 indicate that the deep waters are much older than the CFC 
transient. We have used all samples deeper than than 2000 meters to determine 
the blanks of 0.0045 picomoles per kilogram (pmol/kg) for CFC-11 and 0.0005 
pmol/kg for CFC-12. These concentrations have been subtracted from all the 
reported dissolved CFC concentrations.


DATA

In addition to the CFC concentrations which have merged with the .SEA file, the 
following three tables have been included to complete the data set. The first 
two are tables of the duplicate samples. The third is a table of the atmospheric 
CFC concentrations interpolated to each station.

C.  DATA QUALITY EVALUATION

C.1 Final CFC Data Quality Evaluation (DQE)
    (David Wisegarver)
    Dec 2000
 
During the initial DQE review of the CFC data, a small number
of samples were given QUALT2 flags which differed from the initial
QUALT1 flags assigned by the PI.  After discussion, the PI concurred
with the DQE assigned flags and updated the QUAL1 flags for these
samples.

The CFC concentrations have been adjusted to the SIO98 calibration Scale
(Prinn et al. 2000) so that all of the Pacific WOCE CFC data will be on
a common calibration scale.

For further information, comments or questions, please, contact the CFC
PI for this section (mwarner@ocean.washington.edu) or David Wisegarver
(wise@pmel.noaa.gov).

                                APPENDIX D
                          BOTTLE QUALITY COMMENTS

Remarks for deleted samples, missing samples, and WOCE codes other than 2
from WOCE P14N TN023/024.  Investigation of data may include comparison of
bottle salinity and oxygen data with CTD data, review of data plots of the
station profile and adjoining stations, and rereading of charts (i.e.,
nutrients). Comments from the Sample Logs and the results of ODF's
investigations are included in this report.  Units stated in these comments
are milliliters per liter for oxygen and micromoles per liter for Silicate,
Nitrate, and Phosphate, unless otherwise noted.  The first number before
the comment is the cast number (CASTNO) times 100 plus the bottle number
(BTLNBR).

STATION 001

Cast 1         Marine Tech log: "Due to tripping problems, went down for
               2nd bottom approach, then up again.  8 bottles tripped on
               deck."

STATION 003

120            Sample log: "Leaking from top."  Samples appear to be okay.

112-113        This value offscale for sil. No rerun.  Silicate low,
               footnote silicate bad.

101            Delta-S at 3041db is 0.0035, salinity is 34.655.  Salinity
               agrees with adjoining station, leave as is.  Oxygen low,
               leave as is.  NO2 high, rechecked data and NO2 has higher
               peak. Footnote NO2 questionable.

STATION 004

Cast 1         Sample log: "salt and nuts sampled before tritium."  This
               would not affect ODF samples.

STATION 005

136 (No Pressure)
               Nuts log: "no sample."  Suspect this was intended, several
               no-confirms, but no comment that bottle 36 was suppose to
               have water in it.  Data appears to be okay for the rest of
               the cast, too.

118            Oxygen high, bubble?  Analyst indicated a low endpoint,
               footnote oxygen questionable.

102            Oxygen high.  No indication of a problem, footnote oxygen
               questionable.

101            Delta-S at 3512db is 0.0038, salinity is 34.668.  Other
               samples are acceptable, salinity does not fit WOCE specs,
               therefore, footnote salinity questionable.

STATION 007

Cast 1         There were many "no confirms" on this station.  It appears
               that two bottles were to be tripped at the bottom, but only
               one did. Pressures appear to have been reassigned correctly,
               and bottle 36 was not tripped.  Footnote bottle did not trip
               as scheduled.  This was done to alert the DQE that there
               were tripping problems.

136 (No Pressure)
               Sample log: "Not closed."  See Cast 1 tripping comments.

102-135        See Cast 1 tripping comments. Footnote bottle did not trip
               as scheduled.

STATION 008

125            Sample log: "Leaking from bottom."  Marine Tech log:
               "leaking from end cap. Debris in o-ring."  Oxygen .3 ml/l,
               2.4 umol/kg high, nuts and salt a little low.  Delta-S at
               461db is -0.0281, salinity is 34.027.  Footnote bottle
               leaking, samples bad.

120            Sample log: "Leaking from top."  Oxygen as well as other
               samples are acceptable.

112            Delta-S at 1817db is -0.0077, salinity is 34.552.  Gradient
               area, agrees with adjoining stations vs. pressure.  Salinity
               is lower than adjoining stations when compared using
               potential temperature.  Footnote salinity questionable.

111            Delta-S at 2020db is -0.0115, salinity is 34.573.  Gradient
               area, agrees with adjoining stations vs. pressure.  Salinity
               is lower than adjoining stations when compared using
               potential temperature.  Footnote salinity questionable.

110            Delta-S at 2227db is -0.0056, salinity is 34.600.  Gradient
               area, agrees with adjoining stations vs. pressure.  Salinity
               is lower than adjoining stations when compared using
               potential temperature.  Footnote salinity questionable.

109            Delta-S at 2435db is -0.0065, salinity is 34.614.  Gradient
               area, agrees with adjoining stations vs. pressure.  Salinity
               is lower than adjoining stations when compared using
               potential temperature.  Footnote salinity questionable.

107            Delta-S at 2850db is -0.1089, salinity is 34.535.  Salt low.
               Bad salinity (really bad).  Footnote salinity bad, no
               analysis problem observed.  Other samples are acceptable.

STATION 009

135            Delta-S at 36db is 0.0318, salinity is 33.104.  CTD salinity
               has a spike in up trace, footnote CTD salinity bad. Other
               samples are acceptable.  No CTDO is calculated because the
               CTD Salinity is coded bad.

130            Pre-tripped (looks like ~407db).  Footnote bottle leaking,
               samples bad.

120            Sample log: "Leaks before venting."  Marine Tech log: "Air
               leak - all looks ok."  Oxygen and other samples are
               acceptable.

STATION 010

130            Sample log: "leaks before venting. upper o-ring."  Marine
               Tech log: "leaks."  Oxygen as well as other samples are
               acceptable.

120            Sample log: "leaks."  Marine Tech log: "leaks."  Oxygen as
               well as other samples are acceptable.

118            Sample log: "Leaking from bottom."  Marine Tech log:
               "leaks."  Oxygen as well as other samples are acceptable.

107            PO4 high.  PO4 appears high on charts. No obvious reason.
               Footnote PO4 questionable.

STATION 011

135            Delta-S at 36db is 0.0327, salinity is 33.073.  Other data
               are acceptable.  Gradient area, water mixing during bottle
               trip.

111            NO3 value looks a bit high. No obvious reason.  Footnote NO3
               questionable.

101            Oxygen is 0.8 umol/kg low compared with duplicate trip.  ODF
               suggests oxygen is questionable.  PI has deemed oxygen
               acceptable.

STATION 012

Cast 1         There were many "no confirms" on this station.  It appears
               that two bottles were to be tripped at the bottom, but only
               one did. Pressures appear to have been reassigned correctly,
               and bottle 36 was not tripped.  Footnote bottle did not trip
               as scheduled.  This was done to alert the DQE that there
               were tripping problems.

136 (No Pressure)
               Nuts.notes: "no3 f1's seem high."  Checked charts and comp
               files. No obvious problems.  NO3 higher than adjoining
               stations, within spec of measurement.  Sample log: "Not
               closed. No water."  Marine Tech log: "bottle came up open.
               Pylon tripping problem."

106            Delta-S at 2818db is 0.0036, salinity is 34.647.  Autosal
               took a few tries to come up with 2 readings that agreed.
               Footnote salinity bad, other samples are acceptable.

102-135        See Cast 1 tripping comments.  Footnote bottle did not trip
               as scheduled.

STATION 013

Cast 1         Intended to change the bottle sequence to verify Freon
               signal seen in bottom bottles. However, this did not go as
               scheduled.  Pressure have been reassigned and appear to be
               correct unless noted on individual bottles.  Footnote bottle
               did not trip as scheduled.

136            Silicate low, could have tripped 200db shallower in the
               water column, but then other data would not fit the station
               profile or adjoining station comparisons. Footnote silicate
               bad.

131-136        See Cast 1 tripping comments.  Footnote bottle did not trip
               as scheduled.

130            Samples indicate this bottle tripped between 3050db and
               3400db.  Delta-S is 1.3456.  Footnote bottle leaking and
               samples bad for this level.  ODF recommends deletion of all
               water samples.

111-129        See Cast 1 tripping comments.  Footnote bottle did not trip
               as scheduled.

110            Sample log: "Not closed. No sample."  This level is included
               and assigned with just CTD data.  This was done so the DQE
               has additional information to double-check that pressure
               assignments were done correctly.  Footnote bottle no samples
               taken.

102            Silicate low, could have tripped 200db shallower in the
               water column, but then other data would not fit the station
               profile or adjoining station comparisons. Footnote silicate
               bad.

101-109        See Cast 1 tripping comments.  Footnote bottle did not trip
               as scheduled.

STATION 015

124            Bad salt.  No analytical problem noted, footnote salinity
               bad.  Delta-S at 409db is 0.1634, salinity is 34.043.

115            NO3 little low.  NO3: "checked. No obvious analytical
               problem."  Within WOCE specs, NO3 is acceptable.

108            PO4 high. Spike in peak, footnote PO4 bad.

STATION 016

136            CTDO Processor: "Top 28db CTD oxygen questionable."

118            Oxygen a little high, but agrees with next station, data is
               acceptable.  Nuts: "Checked no3. No obvious problem."  NO3 a
               little low. No notes. NO3 is acceptable.

115            O2 value off. No obvious problem, agrees with previous
               stations.  O2 is acceptable.  NO3 value high. No obvious
               problem. Footnote NO3 questionable.  PO4 value off. No
               obvious problem. Footnote PO4 questionable.

STATION 017

125            Sample log: "Helium resampled."  Oxygen as well as other
               data are acceptable.

122            Sample log: "Valve leaks."  Oxygen as well as other data are
               acceptable.

120            NO3 value odd.  NO3 appears low compared with station
               profile, however, agrees with adjoining stations.  Footnote
               NO3 questionable.

118-119        NO3 high.  Nuts: "Checked. no obvious reason."  Suspect that
               120 may be low, footnote no3 questionable.

118            PO4 high, footnote PO4 questionable.  Nuts: "Checked. no
               obvious reason."

103            Sample log: "upper vent open."  Oxygen as well as other data
               are acceptable.

STATION 018

136            Sample log: "didn't close."  See 35 tripping comment.
               Footnote bottle no samples taken at 859db.

135            Sample log: "didn't close."  Bottles 14-36 did not trip as
               scheduled. This level is included and assigned with just CTD
               data just as a stop of the CTD and an attempted trip level
               at 85db.  This was done so the DQE has additional
               information to double-check that pressure assignments were
               done correctly.  Footnote bottle no samples taken.

131            Sample log: "Leaking from bottom."  Oxygen and other samples
               are acceptable.

121            Sample log: "vents open."  Oxygen and other samples are
               acceptable.

119            Sample log: "vents open."  Oxygen and other samples are
               acceptable.

115-134        See 114 tripping comment. Footnote bottle did not trip as
               scheduled.

115            Sil a little high.  sil: no obvious reason.  Footnote SiO3
               questionable.  Delta-S at 760db is 0.0069, salinity is
               34.271.  Autosal took several tries before getting two
               readings to agree. This is an indication of sample
               contamination, footnote salinity questionable.  Other
               samples are acceptable.

114            Bottles tripped one level shallower than planned.  Pressures
               were reassigned and samples appear to be okay.  Footnote
               bottle did not trip as scheduled.

113            Sample log: "vents open."  Oxygen and other samples are
               acceptable.

111            Delta-S at 1012db is 0.0091, salinity is 34.374.  No
               analytical problem noted. However, there were a few times
               the Autosal tried to get two conductivity readings to agree.
               Suspect there could be a drawing problem. Other samples are
               acceptable.  Footnote salinity questionable.

107            Sample log: "vents open."  Oxygen high on station profile,
               but agrees with Station 017.  This is within WOCE specs,
               data are acceptable.

106            Delta-S at 1519db is 0.0075, salinity is 34.424.  Footnote
               salinity questionable, could be a drawing error with bottle
               05. Oxygen is acceptable.

104            Sil 2 micromoles/kg high.  Sil: no obvious reason.  This
               level the SiO3 agrees with Station 017.  Footnote SiO3
               questionable.

STATION 019

Cast 1         Sample log: "no time to shake o2's 2nd time."  Marine Tech
               log: "changed pylon before station."  Oxygens appear to be
               acceptable.

131            Sample log: "Leaking from bottom."  Oxygen as well as other
               samples are acceptable.

130 (No Pressure)
               Sample log: "No bottle."

117            Sample log: "Leaked."  Oxygen low, nuts and salt high.
               Pretrip?  Footnote bottle leaking, samples bad.

116            Sample log: "Bottom o-ring caught. No sample."  This level
               is included and assigned with just CTD data.  This was done
               so the DQE has additional information to double-check that
               pressure assignments were done correctly.  Footnote bottle
               no samples taken.

106            Sil ~3 um/l, 1.43 um/kg high.  nuts: no obvious reason.
               Footnote Sil questionable.

STATION 020

Cast 1         Sample log: "o2 late second shake."  Oxygen agree with CTDO,
               data are acceptable.

131            Sample log: "dripping bottom seal."  Oxygen appears slightly
               low, CTDO has a lot of structure in this area. Will leave
               oxygen and bottle codes as acceptable.

122            Sample log: "stopcock drips."  Oxygen as well as other
               samples appear are acceptable.

112            Sample log: "Helium resampled 2X."  Does not appear to have
               affected oxygen sample.

111            Salt low. Same as 112. Looks like misdraw.  Delta-S at
               1720db is -0.0171, salinity is 34.538.  Footnote salinity
               bad.

STATION 021

Cast 1         Excessive standard drift on all salinities. Thermistor on
               Autosal 55-654 replaced after this run.  Footnote salinity
               bad.

127            PO4 value high.  NO3 value high.  Sil value off.  No obvious

               at the greatest depth as scheduled by the PI to assess
               variability. It appears that bottle 1 (one) was always lower
               if there was a difference between these two bottles. No
               analytical error could explain a lower oxygen, therefore at

                                 CRUISE UPDATES

WEEKLY REPORT 1
1993 JUL 10

Left Dutch Harbor on 5 July and headed northwest to 59 N, 174 W. Made an 
instrument test station on the way, by lowering the CTD and tripping 12 Rosette 
bottles each at 2260 m, 500 m and 100 m to check on repeatability of results, 
with good success. Minor difficulties with the pylon were resolved quickly. 
From 59 N, 174 W the ship turned SSW toward Amchitka Pass, making the first 
high- resolution, top-to-bottom hydrographic section through the deep Bering 
Sea. There is a hint of measurable freons and increased oxygens below about 
3300 m. suggesting possible ventilation of the bottom waters. If this 
preliminary finding is upheld by further careful analysis, it will require 
revising some previously held notions about deep water formation in the Bering 
Sea. - Roden

WEEKLY REPORT 2 1993 JUL 18

Left the Bering Sea through Amchitka Pass, transected the subarctic domain and 
crossed the subarctic front at 41-30 N. The subarctic front was marked by the 
outcrop of the subarctic halocline, the disappearance of the sub-surface 
temperature minimum and the rapid southward descent of the sound channel axis.  
As expected, there was a marked decrease in silicate concentrations when 
crossing from the Bering Sea into the North Pacific. In Amchitka Pass, strong 
currents and tidal mixing caused low surface temperatures and sharply reduced 
the intensity of the oxygen minimum.

The weather was good during the first 12 days and we averaged 4 stations a day. 
Then we were beset by winds of 40 - 50 kn and seas of 20 - 30 ft. This resulted 
in only a single station per day. The outlook is for improving weather and 
already the winds have decreased to 30 kn and the seas subsided to under 20 ft 
and the spirit aboard is high. There have been no major equipment problems so 
far. - Roden

WEEKLY REPORT 3 1993 JUL 26

Transected the subarctic-subtropical transition zone and encountered Kuroshio 
origin waters near 35.30 N. Preliminary geostrophic calculations indicate an 
eastward current component of about 40 cm/s. It is not yet clear, whether this 
is a branch of the Kuroshio or an energetic eddy shed by it. The subtropical 
front was crossed at about 31.30 N. It was marked by a temperature difference 
of 3 C, a salinity difference of 0.6 psu and an eastward flow component of 
about 30 cm/s. The front was located about 180 nm north of the tradewind 
boundary, which occurred near 28.30 N.

The weather during the last week has been exceptionally good and the work is 
progressing on schedule and the equipment is working satisfactorily. In these 
remote subtropical latitudes the night sky is very clear, with a beautiful 
display of the Milky Way and thousands upon thousands of bright stars visible 
to the unaided eye. Venus is so bright that when it is near the horizon, it can 
be mistaken for a ship's light. - Roden.

WEEKLY REPORT 4 1993 AUG 1

Reached latitude 15 N today on the transect through the subtropical gyre. A 
preliminary examination of the section completed so far showed several regions 
of strong zonal flow components. Maximum geostrophic speeds were 54 cm/s in the 
Alaska Stream, 30 cm/s in the subarctic current near 42 N, 48 cm/s in the 
Kuroshio extension near 35.30N, and 41 cm/s in the vicinity of the subtropical 
front near 32 N. Several mesoscale eddies with speeds in the 20-30 cm/s range 
were observed also.

The light transmissometer does not work well in tropical latitudes. It shows 
consistently a prominent minimum between 400 and 1200 m. First I thought it 
might be real, but after a week of thinking I could not come up with a 
plausible answer. Then I noticed that the feature occurred only on the 
downtrace, not the uptrace. Finally, we decided to stop the CTD at 700 m, where 
the minimum was most pronounced and see what happens. Sure enough, in about 5 
minutes, the minimum disappeared. This obviously is a temperature compensation 
effect on the instrument. One obviously can design any kind of transmission 
minimum trace by simply varying the lowering speed. This clearly is not 
acceptable. So I urge all WOCE participants using the light transmissometer in 
tropical latitudes to take the results with two grains of salt and lots of 
water. -Roden

WEEKLY REPORT 5 1993 AUG 8

Working in the doldrums at a rate of 4 to 5 stations a day, spaced at intervals 
of 15 nm. A very sharp transition between the North Pacific intermediate 
salinity minimum and the subsurface salinity maximum from the South Pacific 
occurred at 11 N. The doldrum trough started at 9 N and at 5 N we are still in 
it. So far, there has not been any sign of a well defined north equatorial 
counter current, but I expect to encounter it soon.

There is a conspicuous absence of seabirds at this longitude. Between 50 N and 
5 N I have seen only a dozen birds or so. Flying fish are very scarce here, 
too, and only an occasional school of mahi-mahi and tuna has been sighted. 
Squid, however, are plentiful.- Roden

WEEKLY REPORT 6 1993 AUG 14

After 38 days at sea put into Tarawa on 11 August to change some of the 
scientific and ship's crew. We have completed 130 stations so far, without the 
loss of a single station due to weather. In Tarawa, invited 10 government 
ministers aboard the ship for lunch, stated the intent of our visit, the goal 
of our research and explained to them the scope of WOCE. They greatly 
appreciated this information and I found this is the least we could do for them 
for granting us clearance to do research in their economic interest zone. The 
government officials reciprocated this courtesy by inviting us for a first 
class performance of their traditional songs and dances of war, fishing and 
young people's yearnings. An expedition is more than just scientists counting 
the number of completed stations and administrators counting the total of 
leftover cents. It also involves person-to-person contact, the building of 
goodwill between nations and the sharing of scientific information with them 
for the betterment of their economic status. - Roden

WEEKLY REPORT NO.7 1993 AUG 22

Crossed the equator on the way south and added five stations along the equator 
to understand better the circulation and property distributions. At the equator 
itself, strong eastward flow was observed both at the surface and the core of 
the undercurrent, with a minimum in between. The weather at the equator was 
unsettled, with frequent heavy showers and generally light and variable winds, 
except neat squall lines, where they were brisk. The thermohaline structure 
between 2 N and 2 S is exceedingly complex in the upper 1500 m, with many step- 
like features, apparently created by a combination of shear induced turbulence 
and frontal interleaving. Between 5 and 3 N general eastward flow was observed.

After taking 150 stations, the CTD wire developed multiple shorts and 4300 m 
had to be cut off, leaving 4500 m on the drum. Fortunately we have another 
winch with 8500 m of CTD wire aboard, so this will not affect our top-to-bottom 
sampling.

At latitude 0 degrees, longitude 180 degrees we had a traditional golden 
shellback ceremony, initiating 12 neophytes, this P.I. included, into the realm 
of King Neptune and Queen Amphitrite - Roden

WEEKLY REPORT 8 1993 AUG 29

After working stations from the frigid waters of the northern Bering Sea to the 
balmy South Pacific, covering more than 11000 km, took the last station of P14N 
in view of Vanua Levu island, Fiji. A fishing net blocked our way, so found it 
prudent to shift the station 2 miles north, to avoid entangling the CTD in the 
net. All together, we have made 199 CTD casts to the bottom, took 40 
tritium/helium samples, determined chlorofluorocarbons at 125 stations and C02 
and alkalinity at 73 stations, deployed 12 Rafos and 12 Alace floats, lowered 
the ADCP, depth permitting, more than 100 times and kept a detailed 
meteorological log at each station. With the exception of the light transmis- 
someter, which failed in the tropics, all the instruments worked well. The 
successful conclusion of a cruise of such complexity is due to the high 
competence and the team spirit of the diverse scientific groups aboard and to 
the unstingy help of the Captain and crew of the R/V Thomas G. Thompson. To 
each and all of them, I give my heartfelt thanks. - Roden



LIGHT TRANSMISSION PROBLEM 
(Wilf Gardner, Mary Jo Richardson)
1993 AUG 19

In a recent report on WOCE P14N progress Gunner Roden commented on a prominent 
minimum in light transmission between 400 and 1200 m which occurred on the 
downtrace, but not on the uptrace with the CTD. We have been aware of this 
problem (disaffectionately known as "the nose") and have been working with the 
manufacturer--"Pl4N thought we had isolated the problem to excessive heating of 
the transmissometer by exposure to the sun prior to deployment because during 
an equatorial cruise last year, 30 profiles out of 130 contained the 
transmission minimum, and 29 of them were made during daylight hours. We 
relayed this information to ODF personnel, but they still had the problem when 
the rosette was completely protected from the sun between deployments. The 
problem still seems related to temperature differentials and may involve 
moisture condensation. In any case, the minimum is not repeated on the upcast 
after the instrument has been at relatively constant temperatures for a long 
period of time. For that reason, we use the upcast data when the minimum 
occurs. This makes our data processing more time consuming, because we also use 
temperature- time algorithms on time-based (rather than pressure- based) data, 
but ODF has been very helpful in providing the necessary information to produce 
accurate data. These data have resulted in the publication of two theses and 
several papers. We understand that this problem does not occur with the 2000 m 
transmissometers and have encouraged SeaTech to resolve the problem with the 
deep units ASAP.

          Because it appears that Sarliee reformatted a version of the bottle 
          file that had parameters "masked out" (which means that they were 
          replaced with 9's) and not encrypted, and the old file which 
          contained all the original values was not clearly marked, the file 
          called p14nhy_ALL_PARAMETERS_1998.11.24.txt was reformatted according 
          to her comments below, run thru wocecvt with no errors and renamed 
          p14nhy_ALL_PARAMETERS_1998.11.24_edt.txt. This file which appears to 
          have all current values in it was then copied to

          This file was copied once, had helium and tritium data masked out 
          and was moved to the parent directory and renamed p14nhy.txt.
          
          p14nhy_2000.01.11_usd_to_mask.txt was also encrypted to make the

04/11/01  Crease      Cruise ID  Clarification Request
          Maintain current Expocodes; see note:They seem to have numbered 
          cruises from launch in1991. As the ship schedule for 1993 shows 
          them as two separate cruises (both under Roden) it makes sense to 
          go with the 23 24 numbering you have Jerry.

06/19/01  Swift       CTDTMP     Update Needed 
          An oceanographically-insignificant error in CTDTMP data for this 
          cruise has been found (ca. -0.00024*T - 0.00036 degC).  A data update 
          is forthcoming. In the interim the corrected data files can be 
          obtained from: ftp://odf.ucsd.edu/pub/HydroData/woce/crs
          
06/20/01  Johnson     CTD        Data Update; Processing error corrected
          revised data available by ftp  ODF has discovered a small error in the 
          algorithm used to convert ITS90 temperature calibration data to 
          IPTS68.  This error affects reported Mark III CTD temperature data for 
          most cruises that occurred in 1992-1999.  A complete list of affected 
          data sets appears below.

          ODF temperature calibrations are reported on the ITS90 temperature 
          scale.  ODF internally maintains these calibrations for CTD data 
          processing on the IPTS68 scale.  The error involved converting ITS90 
          calibrations to IPTS68.  The amount of error is close to linear with 
          temperature: approximately -0.00024 degC/degC, with a -0.00036 degC 
          offset at 0 degC.  Previously reported data were low by 0.00756 degC 
          at 30 degC, decreasing to 0.00036 degC low at 0 degC.  Data reported 
          as ITS90 were also affected by a similar amount.  CTD conductivity 
          calibrations have been recalculated to account for the temperature 
          change.  Reported CTD salinity and oxygen data were not significantly 
          affected.
          
          Revised final data sets have been prepared and will be available soon 
          from ODF (ftp://odf.ucsd.edu/pub/HydroData).  The data will eventually 
          be updated on the whpo.ucsd.edu website as well.
          IPTS68 temperatures are reported for PCM11 and Antarktis X/5, as 
          originally submitted to their chief scientists.  ITS90 temperatures 
          are reported for all other cruises.

          Changes in the final data vs. previous release (other than temperature 
          and negligible differences in salinity/oxygen):
          S04P:  694/03 CTD data were not reported, but CTD values were reported 
          with the bottle data.  No conductivity correction was applied to these 
          values in the original .sea file.  This release uses the same 
          conductivity correction as the two nearest casts to correct salinity.
          AO94:  Eight CTD casts were fit for ctdoxy (previously uncalibrated) 
          and resubmitted to the P.I. since the original release.  The WHP-
          format bottle file was not regenerated.  The CTDOXY for the following 
          stations should be significantly different than the original .sea file 
          values:
              009/01 013/02 017/01 018/01 026/04 033/01 036/01 036/02 
          I09N: The 243/01 original CTD data file was not rewritten after 
          updating the ctdoxy fit.  This release uses the correct ctdoxy data 
          for the .ctd file.  The original .sea file was written after the 
          update occurred, so the ctdoxy values reported with bottle data should 
          be minimally different.

08/29/01  Top         NEON       Data are Public
          Status changed to PublicZafer - Is it safe to assume that all WOCE 
          One-Time Survey neon data from you are now public?  Jim
          
              Yes they are. Zafer

09/26/01  Top         He/Tr      Data are Public
          Status changed to Public

          From: Zafer Top 
            Steve: Yes, you did bug me before about this! All data should have 
            been public since 1998, and if they haven't then they should be!
          
          From Steve Diggs:
            I was asked the following question regarding Roden's 1993 cruise 
            from Fiji aboard the Thompson:
              "Steve,  The table says P14N HeTr are still Non-Public and has 
              both an encrypted file and a public bottle file. Data History has 
              note from Zafer Top saying neon data is public (Aug 29, 2001) but 
              can see no mention of Helium or Tritium.   Do I need to merge the 
              CFCs into both the Public and Non-Public Bottle files or is there 
              chance that the data is now all public?      Dave"
          
            So, are your He/Tr data for P14N public, or would you like for 
            them to be held as encrypted data?  Please let me know and sorry 
            if we've bugged you about this before.

          CFC's merged into BTL, CSV File Added, He/Tr now publicMerged July 
          2001 CFCs into bottle file, made new exchange file and placed both 
          on web. Helium and Tritium are now public.

             (20000628WHPOSIODMB)
          
          2. Helium & Tritium data confirmed public by Zafer Top Sept 26, 2001, 
             so newly merged file need not be encrypted.
          
             All "1"s in QUALT1 changed to "9"s and QUALT2 replaced by new 
             QUALT1 prior to merging.

03/22/02  Anderson    NUTs/S/O   Cannot do DQE
          JK emailed J.Swift for alternatesI checked my files at ODF for 
          information on P14N.  It would appear that I never got to the DQE 
          work on this cruise.  I got the files and was ready to roll, when 
          I got pulled off ODF work to work for my present boss.  His 
          funding was restored to a level where I could work for him full 
          time and he insisted on it.
          
          I don't know if there is anyone else who could work on this 
          cruise, but I certainly couldn't get to it before August.  I can 
          talk to Jim about this if  you like, but doing the DQE work on 
          this cruise soon isn't likely.
